Pros

To put it concisely, a lot to learn and a lot of smart people to learn from!! Very knowledgeable coworkers that help you really understand finer details of networking. I would recommend this place to anyone who genuinely loves networking and is interested in detailed packet analysis, troubleshooting and advancing their skillset. It's awesome to be surrounded by tons people smarter than you!

Cons

Learning curve can be steep and sometimes daunting but it's not necessarily a bad thing...your coworkers will help you out

Pros

The support department has a great team consisting of fun coworkers that help make longer days go by faster. Dinner is free on the weekdays which is nice. Middle management is good and makes an effort to be transparent. Work-life balance has greatly improved in the Support Department since the IPO. I truly believe there is great career opportunity by working here.

Cons

Work culture is very "old school" and can involve working long hours. If you're looking for the "google beanbag in every corner" culture then this is not the place for you.

Pros

* A10 has a cash cow in the ADC market with its Thunder load balancers * Management is making savvy, proactive investments into the higher-growth markets, like security and virtualization (the stock price *could* take off like a rocket if/when these products begin capturing market share) * The stock (and options) are well-priced (A10’s P/S multiple is about 1.5x revenue, whereas F5 is valued at a multiple of 5x sales, even though A10 is growing much faster than F5); so the stock options and ESPP plan seem to offer a very compelling value for any new employees * 401k (recently added company-match!) * Decent health care plans (low deductible of $250 per family member is pretty good; most companies' health care plans have a $2,000 deductible per family member) * Salary (seems competitive to F5 and Riverbed, based on anecdotal evidence) * Flexible work hours (you can work almost any hours, as long as you finish your work) * My manager in Engineering is supportive in terms of my personal growth and career goals

Cons

* Work/life balance can get a bit lopsided * Multiple competing releases (it’s not always clear which is the highest priority, so this results in a lot of “flapping” between P1 priorities)
